CO M M E RSO NIA Forster
Commersonia echlnata Forst.; Blanco FI. Filip, ed. 2 (1845) 160; ed. 3,
1 (1877) 287=COMMERSONIA BARTRAMIA (Linn.) Merr. Inter-
pret. Heib. Amb. (1917) 362.
I am now of the opinion that the Philippine form is the same
as the Polynesian one and that Blanco correctly interpreted
Forster’s species. Most of our material, however,-has been
referred to C. platyphylla Andr., which I do not consider to
be specifically distinct from C. echinata Forst.=C. bartramia
(Linn.) Merr. Common and widely distributed in the Philip-
pines.
Illustrative specimen from Taytay, Palawan, May, 1913 (Mer-
rill: Specie? Blançoanae No. 576).
